BOWLED OVER
This is the price of success : You have to reopenina larger space to serve your growing fan base . As the most popular franchise in the PLAYA BOWLS chain , the eatery at 19 Church St . has reopened around the corner on South ParkSt ., in the former location of Oil & Vinegar . The new Playa Bowls offers a larger menu , including poke bowls — assortments of raw marinated fish with vegetables over rice — and adécor that makes you want to hop on a surfboard . But if you went to the former location expecting bowls full of fresh fruit , nuts , frozen acai and coconut , you can still get it there : That location has been rebranded as Sweet Berry Bowls .
